Nine-year-old Lily Douglas, who suffers from bone cancer, with pop group Little Mix at their concert in Dundee.

Her mother, Jane, said: “The girls in Little Mix were great with Lily and gave her a goodie bag. We were right at the front of the stage and even got a few waves from the girls as they performed.”

And family friend Brooke Robertson said it was a “dream come true” for Lily, who has bone cancer disease Ewing’s Sarcoma, to meet her pop idols.

“A friend, Erin McNicol, had arranged the whole thing and Lily got to go to see the band with her friend, Cerys Robertson, which was brilliant,” she said.

“Lily has now had three chemotherapy treatments and the cancer has gone from one lung and there is still a little spot in the other lung. She’s lost a lot of weight because of the treatment but is a little fighter and is doing really, really well.”

And around 300 people will take part in the Race for Life 5k in Perth on Sunday, July 9, wearing t-shirts showing support for Lily and Leva Stewart – a two-year-old Perth toddler who has been diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma – a cancer developing from connective tissues in the body.
